    231. Ask for forgiveness

    After attending the funeral of Yu Xiaoxuan’s parents, Shen Qinglan suddenly missed Fu Hengyi and took a taxi directly to the Beijing Military Region. It was raining in the sky. Shen Qinglan got out of the car and waited in the rain for Fu Hengyi to come out to pick her up.

    When Fu Hengyi saw Shen Qinglan standing in the rain, his face instantly darkened. He handed the umbrella to Shen Qinglan’s head and lectured, “Why don’t you hold an umbrella when you go out? What if you get sick? Dr. Zhong said that your body cannot catch cold now…”

    Shen Qinglan suddenly hugged Fu Hengyi’s waist. Fu Hengyi stopped talking and noticed something was wrong with her mood. “What’s wrong, Qinglan, did something happen?”

    “Yu Xiaoxuan’s parents died in a car accident.” Shen Qinglan said. Fu Hengyi was silent, but held Shen Qinglan tightly in his arms.

    After Shen Qinglan calmed down a little, Fu Hengyi let her go and took her back to the dormitory. When Shen Qinglan came out of the hot bath, Fu Hengyi had already cooked ginger soup.

    “Drink the ginger soup first. Don’t catch a cold.” Fu Hengyi pointed to the ginger soup on the table and spoke. Shen Qinglan obediently picked up the ginger soup and drank it all in one gulp.

    “Are you feeling better now?” Fu Hengyi asked warmly.

    Shen Qinglan nodded, “I’m fine. I just suddenly thought of grandma, so I felt a little sad. Fu Hengyi, do you think I’m becoming more and more hypocritical?” When she said this, Shen Qinglan’s tone was a bit self-deprecating.She really felt that since marrying Fu Hengyi, she had become hypocritical and always sad.

    Fu Hengyi chuckled, “I started thinking wildly again. It’s okay. I’m glad you are willing to share your feelings with me. Don’t think too much and have a good sleep.”

    Shen Qinglan nodded. She was indeed exhausted from the funeral of Yu Xiaoxuan’s parents these days. She lay on the bed and fell asleep soon.

    Fu Hengyi waited for her to fall asleep, then called Han Yi to find out what happened, then walked in again and covered her with a quilt.

    When Shen Qinglan woke up, she saw Fu Hengyi sitting at the desk, turning on the computer and typing furiously. Seeing that she was awake, she closed the computer and said, “Are you awake? Are you hungry?”

    Shen Qinglan did not answer he’s question, but asked, “Did I delay your work?”

    Fu Hengyi shook his head, “No, I was just making a physical training schedule. Do you want noodles or dinner tonight?”

    “I want to eat fried noodles.”

    “Okay, wait.” Fu Hengyi walked directly into the kitchen.

    After a while, Fu Hengyi came out with two bowls of noodles. After eating a bowl of noodles, Shen Qinglan did not stay in the military area, but went directly back to Shen’s house. As soon as he arrived at Shen’s house, he saw Shen Rang’s family.

    “Sister-in-law, is dad awake?” Shen Rang asked as he looked at Chu Yunrong walking down the stairs.

    “Not yet.” Chu Yunrong said. When she saw Shen Qinglan coming back, a smile appeared on her face, “Qinglan.”

    Shen Qinglan first greeted Chu Yunrong, and then looked at Shen Rang’s family, “Second uncle.” He glanced at Lu Yaqin and called “Second aunt.”

    Shen Qinglan’s title made Lu Yaqin’s eyes heat up. This was the first person from the Shen family to admit her identity, “Hey.” Pulling Shen Junze beside him, Shen Junze reluctantly called out “cousin.”

    Shen Qinglan didn’t even look at he. Naturally, Shen Qinglan didn’t have a good face towards the culprit who sent his grandfather to the hospital because of his anger.

    “Mom, let me go up and see grandpa.” Shen Qinglan said and went directly upstairs. Shen Junze’s face was very ugly and he glared at Shen Qinglan’s back.

    Mr. Shen actually didn’t sleep. He just didn’t want to see Shen Rang’s family. When he saw Shen Qinglan, he smiled and said, “Lan Lan, sit next to grandpa.”

    Shen Qinglan sat down next to the old man, “Grandpa, how are you feeling today?”

    Mr. Shen smiled lovingly, “Grandpa is fine and recovering well. How is your friend?”

    “Things at home have been dealt with, but this incident has hit her hard, and I’m afraid it will take some time to recover.”

    Mr. Shen sighed, “Go and spend more time with her when you have time.” Mr. Shen still remembered Yu Xiaoxuan, a child who loved to laugh, very lively and cheerful, but who knew that such a thing would happen.

    “Yes, I know.” Shen Qinglan tidied the quilt for the old man, “Grandpa, second uncle…”

    Shen Qinglan only mentioned two words, and Mr. Shen waved his hand, “Don’t mention he, let his family go.”

    Shen Qinglan pursed her lips slightly, she knew that the more Mr. Shen behaved like this, the more he cared about this second uncle in his heart, “Grandpa, the second uncle has finally come back, are you really not willing to see them?”

    “Let them go.” Mr. Shen turned away and looked at his wife’s photo on the wall and said calmly.

    When Shen Qinglan went downstairs, Shen Rang’s family was still there, “Second uncle, grandpa said, he doesn’t want to see you, so you can leave.”

    The light in Shen Rang’s eyes dimmed. Lu Yaqin looked at her husband and felt very sad. She regretted even more that she had agreed to leave the capital with Shen Rang. If she hadn’t been with Shen Rang at that time, Shen Rang wouldn’t be so sad now.

    Lu Yaqin stood up, looked at Chu Yunrong, and prayed, “Sister-in-law, let me go up and see the old man, and I will say a few words to the old man. The game will not irritate the old man, okay?”

    Chu Yunrong looked troubled.

    “Okay.” Shen Qinglan said. Lu Yaqin’s face was happy and she glanced at Shen Qinglan gratefully.

    “Lan Lan, why did you bring her here?” Mr. Shen’s face immediately turned cold when he saw Lu Yaqin.

    Lu Yaqin stood there helplessly, looking at Mr. Shen, and suddenly knelt on the ground with a thud, “Old man, all the mistakes are my fault. Please don’t blame Shen Rang anymore.”

    Shen Qinglan didn’t expect that she would come up with this move, and frowned slightly. She didn’t like others to kneel down easily. Mr. Shen also frowned, “Get up.”

    Lu Yaqin did not get up, “Old man, I know I am not worthy of Shen Rang. If it were not for me, Shen Rang would have a very good future. All this is my fault. It is my fault and my fault. But now, if you want to blame, just blame me. Shen Rang has not had a hard time these years. Although he has never come back, he misses you all the time. Master, Shen Rang’s time is running out. Please forgive him. I don’t want to.”I have to leave with regret in the end.” Lu Yaqin’s face was filled with tears.

    Mr. Shen and Shen Qinglan’s expressions changed when they heard this. Mr. Shen stared at Lu Yaqin closely, “What do you mean by what you just said? What do you mean Shen Rang’s time is running out?”

    Lu Yaqin shed more tears, “Shen Rang was diagnosed with liver cancer six months ago. Now the cancer cells have spread, and the doctor said he doesn’t have much time.”

    Mr. Shen’s face instantly turned pale. If he hadn’t been sitting on the bed, he might have been unable to stand still. Shen Qinglan quickly stepped forward and patted the old man’s chest, “Grandpa.”

    Mr. Shen finally regained his breath, “Is what you just said true?” He still couldn’t believe it.

    Lu Yaqin cried and nodded. If possible, she would rather lie to the old man.

    Mr. Shen was silent for a long time, then waved his hand, “Let him come in.”

    Lu Yaqin’s face lit up when she heard this, “Thank you, old man, thank you.”

    When Shen Rang learned that the old man was finally allowed to see him, he quickly went upstairs. The old man had been transferred from the bed to the wheelchair, with his back to him.

    There were only two people in the room, the old man and Shen Rang. “Dad.” Shen Rang called out.

    “Kneel down.” Mr. Shen said, and Shen Rang was stunned.

    “I tell you to kneel down.” Mr. Shen said seriously. Shen Rang hesitated and finally knelt down.

    Mr. Shen turned around and looked at Shen Rang kneeling on the ground, “Do you know where you went wrong?”

    “Dad, I was unfilial. I shouldn’t have left you and mother alone for twenty years.”

    Mr. Shen looked at he with sharp eyes, “You are indeed unfilial. You actually abandoned your responsibilities and your family for a woman. Shen Rang, is this how I taught you since you were a child?”

    Shen Rang was silent.

    “Shen Rang, look at your mother’s photo for me, and tell me whether you are worthy of your mother’s and my expectations and teachings.”

    Mr. Shen pointed to the photo of his deceased wife on the wall and whispered.

    Shen Rang raised his head, looked at the photo, his eyes were red, “Dad, I’m sorry.”

    “You are sorry for me, and you are even more sorry for your mother. She will still talk about her little son until she dies, but what about you? Where were you at that time?”

    “Shen Rang, you have been smart since you were a child. You are more outstanding than your elder brother. It is also because of this that I begged your Uncle Fu on your behalf to let him marry Jingting to you. But what about you? How did you do it? Go to someone else’s house to give Jingting a face. Jingting has been proud since she was a child. You let herWhere do you want to put a girl’s face?Where do you want your uncle Fu to put your face?Where do you want me and your mother to lose face?”

    Shen Rang was silent. He was indeed sorry for Fu Jingting, and he was ashamed of her. “Dad, I know I owe her. I can’t pay it back in this life. I will definitely pay it back to her in the next life.”

    “In the next life, who cares about your next life, Shen Rang, you wasted all the teachings your mother and I gave you.”

    “Dad, I’m sorry.”

    Mr. Shen gasped, “Shen Rang, let me ask you, why are you coming back now? It’s because you are going to die, so you want to come back, so that I, the old man, can experience a white-haired person giving a black-haired person, right?”

    Shen Rang suddenly raised his head, with a look of shock on his face, “Dad, do you know?” After thinking about it, he instantly understood that it was probably Lu Yaqin who told the old man.

    “I understand, Shen Rang, you are very good. You are indeed a filial son. You also knew that you would come and let me take a look and let me know whether you are dead or alive, right?”

    Shen Rang moved a few steps and moved in front of Mr. Shen, “Dad, it was my fault. Whether you hit me or scold me, don’t be angry. Your body can’t withstand the torture.”
